U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Robert Drake, 728th Airlift Squadron loadmaster, receives instruction from Master Sgt. Tyler Wekell, 728th Airlift Squadron loadmaster, to perform a Specialized Fueling Operation (SFO) at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, April 24, 2025. SFO involves training mobility crews and other personnel to refuel aircraft in austere and contingency environments, utilizing ground-based procedures like wet-wing defueling and hot refueling. This expands refueling capabilities beyond traditional air-to-air methods and enhances mission flexibility. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Heather Clements)
